Steam inhalation

Use a humidifier or a cool-mist vaporizer in your child's bedroom when she's sleeping, resting, or playing in the room.Give your child a warm bath in a steamy bathroom. Let a hot shower run for a few minutes before getting the tub ready. Let her play in the bath as long as she likes.

Give lots of fluids

For babies younger than 12 months, simply breastfeeding or bottle-feeding her more frequently is the best way to keep her well hydrated. For older children, plain water is great, but your child might not find it very appealing. You can also offer fruit smoothies or ice pops made from 100 percent juice.

Head up

While your child is sleeping put an extra pillow under her head. But if she's at all squirmy while she sleeps, it's safer to raise the head of the bed by sliding towels or a pillow underneath the mattress. This also creates a more gradual, comfortable slope than extra pillows.

Get rest

Rest helps the body focus its energy on getting well, so keep kids home from school to keep them warm, and well-rested.

Nasal saline drops

You can make saline drops at home too.Take a steel bowl, spoon and sterilize it well. Take 1/2 tsp of salt and dissolve it in 8 tsp of warm filtered water. Once it has cooled, you can use it for your baby. But use it only in case of emergencies and I suggest to go for the saline drops available in the market than the home-made ones as there is a risk of bacterial growth.
